How This Works
For all donations, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com will distribute approximately 90% of money donated to the selected charities. This is determined primarily by the amount of views per charity and available funds. The 10% expense includes Revver.com's .01/view webhosting cost, California Community Foundation's 1.25% administrative expense and site maintenance. Contributions to the California Community Foundation represent irrevocable gifts subject to the legal and fiduciary control of the foundation's Board of Directors.
For videos which have received 30,000 or more views, whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com may elect to add a click through advertisement at the end of such videos to defray web hosting expenses. As our objective is to donate the most funds possible to our charities, this will eliminate substantial expenses incurred by revver's .01 per view charge on videos with millions of views.
whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com is the property of John Ondrasik and is administrated by John and the Five For Fighting management team at Jim Grant Management.
whatkindofworlddoyouwant.com has no paid staff or personnel.

When I look at Kyle in these pictures I can see he's very happy and I'm positive he loves you with all his heart. I see the same thing in my two boys. They are on the spectrum and non-verbal as well, but when they smile at me it makes me light up inside. Its bitter sweat but we take what we can get. Keep up the great work you are doing for Kyle.

You did a beautiful job!!! I also have an 11 yr old son that was diagnosed when he was 3. He is now verbal and considered High Functioning. I hope every Autistic child can get to that goal. Bless you and your family for putting this wonderful video together. Your child is very licky to have you. I wish your sweet child all the best.

Holly - Just remember, Kyle does love you even though he can't tell you - your family truly is a great example of love.
